Something in the Ale category. Lager brews require temperature control that most new brewers don't have. Sour beers require lots of time, kettle sours require techniques that even I won't attempt.

IPA, Stout, Porter, Blonde and just about all other beer styles take the same amount of skill and time to brew. So, you pretty much have everything at your finger tips.

I suggest a nice straightforward American pale ale.  Learn to walk before you run.

I like most anything.  I was thinking of a basic American pale ale

Thanks

This is a great place to start lots and lots of knowledge here

This is the Pale Ale that I'm brewing as we speak (type). From Sierras IG. A bit of missing information there from the brew nerd perspective but will result in deliciousness as is. You'll learn more as you talk, brew, taste so the best step is forward.

Edit: Also, you don't have to start exactly here. You can begin right on the stove top and not have to deal with the whole mashing process and save a few hours. See if you like the process.

Tons of great advice around here. You can learn a lot from reading the threads. Congratulations on getting into a great hobby and community. Don’t get frustrated when a hiccup arrives. Keep at it!

I should have mentioned, if you've never brewed before I recommend getting a few extract batches under your belt before you try all grain.

Keep your first few recipes simple until you've figured out your system and what works for your setup.

I'm less convinced of the need to start with extract recipes.  Single-vessel brew-in-a-bag is so simple, and the only extra startup cost (vs extract) is a grain bag. I only did one extract kit before jumping to BIAB.

This.

And I won’t recommend a style...so many good choices...but I would recommend that whatever you brew for your first beer, you brew again for your second.  And take lots of notes.  You’ll be up and running in short order.  This hobby isn’t that hard despite what some people may have you believe.

Biggest thing I've learned is. For the most part little mistakes are not the end of the world and even if you have a screw up more than likely your going to make good beer
